Is this even open to non-industry people? The "join ULI today and attend for free" payment category plus the fact that a "General" admissions category is distinctly absent from the payment options would suggest to me that it isn't.
 
I didn't get that. I saw the "Non Member - Private Sector" option and assumed. Plus there are discounts for younger (under 35!) and free for the press. I dunno.
 
Yeah, when I look at the page I see a table at the bottom for what it's going to cost you to get in:

That suggests to me that "Young Leaders" is more a discount you can get if you're not yet at the age where you could reasonably be expected to hold a high level position in the industry rather than being "open to the public, but only if you're under 35."

Same deal with the students column being more of an out for students with relevant majors to get in (or, perhaps more circuitously, an attempt to sucker architecture undergrads into picking up a "discounted" ULI membership they won't actually need for a number of years) rather than "open to anyone currently enrolled in higher education regardless of what degree you're actually working towards."
 
You go as a student and we can split the bill. I can't afford the $160.
 
Who wants a college media pass? :)

Wish I could make it, but I have plans.
